The development phase involves two parts: selecting individual targets within the organization being attacked and forming a relationship with the selected targets. Usually, attackers select people who not only will have access to the desired information or object, but who also show signs of being frustrated, overconfident, arrogant, or somehow easy to extract information from. Once a target is selected, the attacker will start forming a relationship with the target through conversations, emails, shared interests, and so on. The relationship helps build the target's trust in the attacker, allowing the targets to be comfortable, relaxed, and more willing to help.
a new term used to describe a strategy that deliberately mixes elements and techniques of conventional warfare [e.g., national uniforms, heavy weapons] and unconventional warfare [e.g., guerrilla, paramilitary, information, or cyber war] as a way to coerce adversaries while avoiding attribution and retribution
As it refers to technology, hybrid warfare employs political warfare and blends conventional warfare with cyberwarfare. Its goal is to influence others with things such as fake news, diplomacy, lawfare, and foreign electoral intervention

SOCIOLOGY
An elementary school teacher was given a list of her students on the first day of class. Next to each student's name was a number. One was 132, another was 141, and so forth. The teacher saw these numbers and was tremendously excited to begin the school year. In fact, she went out and bought extra materials. At the end of the school year, her students had shown incredible progress. When the principal came up to the teacher and congratulated her, the teacher thanked the principal for giving her so many students with high IQs. The principal said, "What do you mean?" "Well," the teacher replied, "on the first day of class, you gave me that list of student names with their IQs." "Those weren't IQ numbers; they were locker numbers!" The principal responded. Whether this story is true or not, it is a good example of the self-fulfilling prophecy [or the Pygmalion effect]. What might have happened if the numbers next to the students' names had been 94 or 97?
